The split ground structure for microstrip structure can be used to protect analog/RF signal from SSN interference of digital circuits on PCB with common ground. However, the split ground structure gives rise to undesired emissions that may interfere with nearby circuitry due to the ground discontinuity. In this paper, we have proposed the modified structure, Dumbbell shaped SGS and the method to reduce the radiation by adding the lumped resistor on the proposed Dumbbell shaped SGS.

Conventional intraoral radiography continues to be the most widely used image modality for the diagnosis of dental caries. But, conventional intraoral radiography has several shortcomings, including the difficulty of exposing and processing intraoral film of consistently acceptable quality. In addition, radiographic retaking that was the result of processing errors, may result in increased discomfort and radiation dose to the patient. Recently, various digital radiographies substitute for conventional intraoral radiography to overcome these disadvantages. The advantages of digital radiography are numerous. One of advantages Is the elimination of processing errors. In addition, the radiation dose for digital system is approximately 20% to 25% of that required for conventional intraoral radiography Another potential advantage of digital imaging is the ability to perform image quality enhancements such as contrast and density modulation, which may increase diagnostic accuracy. The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic ability of artificial proximal defects to conventional intraoral radiography, direct digital image(CDX2000HQ$^{\circledR}$) and indirect digital image(Digora$^{\circledR}$). Artificial defects were made in proximal surfaces of 60 extracted human molars using #1/2, #1, #2 round bur. Five dentists assessed proximal defects on conventional intraoral radiography, direct digital image(CDX2000HQ$^{\circledR}$) and indirect digital image(Digora$^{\circledR}$). ROC(Receiver Operating Characteristic) analysis and Two-way ANOVA test were used for the evaluation of detectability, and following results were acquired. 1. The mean ROC area of conventional intraoral radiography, direct digital image(CDX2000HQ$^{\circledR}$) and indirect digital Image(Digora$^{\circledR}$) were 0.6766, 0.7538, 0.6791(Grade I), 0.7176, 0.7594, 0.7361(Grade II), and 0.7449, 0.7608, 0.7414(Grade III), respectively. 2. Diagnostic ability of direct digital image was higher than other image modalities. But, there was no statistically significant difference among other imaging modalities for Grade I, II, III lesion(p>0.05). In conclusion, when direct and indirect digital system are comparable with conventional intraoral radiography. these systems may be considered an alternative of conventional intraoral radiography for the diagnosis of proximal surface caries.

For the combination of phosphor screens having various thicknesses and a photodiode array manufactured by complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process, we report the observation of image-quality degradation under the irradiation of 45-kVp spectrum x rays. The image quality was assessed in terms of dark pixel signal, dynamic range, modulation-transfer function (MTF), noise-power spectrum (NPS), and detective quantum efficiency (DQE). For the accumulation of the absorbed dose, the radiation-induced increase both in dark signal and noise resulted in the gradual reduction in dynamic range. While the MTF was only slightly affected by the total ionizing dose, the noise power in the case of $Min-R^{TM}$ screen, which is the thinnest one among the considered screens in this study, became larger as the total dose was increased. This is caused by incomplete correction of the dark current fixed-pattern noise. In addition, the increase tendency in NPS was independent of the spatial frequency. For the cascaded model analysis, the additional noise source is from direct absorption of x-ray photons. The change in NPS with respect to the total dose degrades the DQE. However, with carefully updated and applied correction, we can overcome the detrimental effects of increased dark current on NPS and DQE. This study gives an initial motivation that the periodic monitoring of the image-quality degradation is an important issue for the long-term and healthy use of digital x-ray imaging detectors.

Solar energy is calculated using high-resolution digital elevation model (DEM). In focus on Seoul metropolitan area, correction coefficients of direct and diffuse solar energy with the topographic effect are calculated from DEM with 1720, 900, 450, 90 and 30 spatial resolutions ($m{\times}m$), respectively. The solar energy on the real surface with high-resolution is corrected using by the correction coefficients with topographic effect from the solar energy on horizontal surface with lower resolution. Consequently, the solar energy on the real surface is more detailed distribution than those of horizontal surface. In particular, the topographic effect in the winter is larger than summer because of larger solar zenith angle in winter. In Seoul metropolitan area, the monthly mean topographic effects are more than 200% in winter and within 40% in summer. And annual topographic effects are negative role with more than -60% and positive role with below 40%, respectively. As a result, topographic effect on real surface is not a negligible factor when calculating and analyzing solar energy using regional and global models.

The purpose is to develop a system to reduce the organ movement from the respiration during the 3DCRT or IMRT. This research reports the experience of utilizing personally developed system for mobile tumors. The patients clinical database was structured for 10 mobile tumors and patient setup error measurement and immobilization device effects were investigated. The RMRD system is composed of the respiratory motion reduction device utilized in prone position and abdominal strip device(ASD) utilized in the supine position, and the analysis program, which enables the analysis on patients setup reproducibility. Dose to normal tissue between patients with RMRDs and without RMRDs was analyzed by comparing the normal tissue volume, field margins and dose volume histogram(DVH) using fluoroscopy and CT images. And, reproducibility of patients setup verify by utilization of digital images. When patients breathed freely, average movement of diaphragm was 1.2 cm in prone position in contrast to 1.6 cm in supine position. In prone position, difference in diaphragm movement with and without RMRDs was 0.5 cm and 1.2 cm, respectively, showing that PTV margins could be reduced to as much as 0.7 cm. With RMRDs, volume of the irradiated normal tissue (lung, liver) reduced up to 20 % in DVH analysis. Also by obtaining the digital image, reproducibility of patients setup verify by visualization using the real-time image acquisition, leading to practical utilization of our software. Internal organ motion due to breathing can be reduced using RMRDs, which is simple and easy to use in clinical setting. It can reduce the organ motion-related PTV margin, thereby decrease volume of the irradiated normal tissue.

본 연구는 자동노출제어장치 사용 시 파라미터 조합에 따른 영상 화질과 방사선 출력을 분석하여 임상에 적용할 수 있는 최적의 방법을 모색하고자 하였다. 실험방법은 관전압 70, 81 kVp와 자동노출제어장치(Automatic Exposure Control, AEC)의 감도 S200, S400, S800, S1000을 조합해서 복부와 골반부의 입사표면선량, 관전류량, 신호 대 잡음비(Signal to Noise Ratio, SNR), 대조도 대 잡음비(Contrast to Noise Ratio, CNR), 시간-방사선량 곡선을 구하였다. 그 후 영상 화질과 출력의 안정성을 평가하였다. 그 결과 입사표면선량, 관전류량, 신호 대 잡음비, 대조도 대 잡음비는 관전압과 감도가 높게 설정될수록 감소하였다. 또한 관전압과 감도가 높게 설정될수록 시간-방사선량 곡선은 출력의 안정성이 줄어드는 양상을 보였다. 결론적으로 복부와 골반부 검사 시 관전압과 감도를 높게 조합할수록 검출기는 영상 화질과 방사선 출력을 정상적으로 재현해내지 못하였다. 따라서 비교적 낮은 관전압과 감도를 조합하여 검출기가 파라미터의 조합을 인식할 때 발생하는 오차 범위를 최소화해야 영상 화질과 방사선 출력의 안정성을 최적화할 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구는 저에너지 방사선을 제거하기 위해 사용되는 구리 여과판의 디지털 방사선 장비에서 유용성을 분석하고자 선량, 화질평가의 융복합 연구를 실시하였다. 실험기간은 2015년 4월부터 6월까지 이었다. 관전압과 관전류 변화에 따른 구리 여과판 사용 전, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 mm 의 선량을 평가하였다. 화질평가는 PSNR, MAE, MSE, CNR, SNR 정성적 평가로는 국가암검진 흉부 평가표의 해상, 대조도 평가 7문항을 이용하였다. 흡수선량은 16-88 % 정도 여과판 사용 전에 비해 측정치 낮아졌고, 관전압이 높아짐에 따라 격차가 작아짐을 알 수 있었다. PSNR은 30 dB이상으로 모두 의미 있는 수치였고, CNR, SNR은 여과판 미사용 시 우수했으나 정성적 평가에서는 항목마다 통계적 유의성이 달랐다. 0.1 mm 여과판에서는 폐혈관 관찰 부위에서 측정치가 높고, 0.3 mm도 밀도가 높고 공기가 많은 부위를 제외하고 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 구리 여과판은 좋은 선질과 디지털촬영 장비의 장점인 보정 능력 이용하여 더 적은 선량으로 화질을 향상 시킬 수 있다.
